We have Adelaide vs. Gold Coast predictions for AFL Round 18 on Saturday, July 11 at 8:10pm at the Adelaide Oval.
Adelaide are the shortening $1.38 favourites to win at home against a Gold Coast team that hasn’t won at the Adelaide Oval in their last 13 previous games.
Best Bet
Betting on Adelaide at the Adelaide Oval is one of our favourite bets, and given Gold Coast’s struggles in South Australia, the –16.5 line is a good bet.
Adelaide has four wins from its last five games, with the only recent loss coming against Port Adelaide. They bounced back with an easy win over West Coast, and they won’t be worried about what Gold Coast has to offer.
The SUNS are riding a losing streak after losses to Collingwood, Fremantle, and Hawthorn. It has been a tough schedule recently, but Adelaide is a top five team, so it doesn’t get any easier this week, and they should rack up another loss.
We predict Adelaide getting off to a fast start and relying on their quality midfield to close down Gold Coast’s attempts to attack. Take the –16.5 line before late money comes for the home side.
Same Game Multi
We have been in Riley Thilthorpe’s corner this season, but we’re jumping ship to Darcy Fogarty. He kicked four goals last week, making it 10 goals from his last three games, and he has become more consistent than Thilthorpe, so include him in AFL SGM picks.
A big game is likely from Wayne Milera, who is a $1.88 chance to have 25+ disposals. He had 27 last week, and he had 32 disposals against the Bulldogs. He’s playing well enough to have 25+ disposals against a struggling Gold Coast.
Gold Coast is picked to struggle on attack, which is why we have under 165.5 points in our multi. They combined for 153 points in their latest meeting, where Gold Coasts scored only 46 points.
Best Value Bet
Punters get value odds for Zac Taylor 2+ goals. He has five goals from his last five games, including two doubles, so the stats are on our side.
He’s not Adelaide’s most notable goal kicker, but he’s playing well enough to include in AFL picks at a generous price of $6.
